I go to Greece for 24 consecutive days over the summer. Would like to go for the full 6 week holiday and am working towards being able to do that eventually.

Yep at Xmas.  And  over summer.

Summer sometimes consecutive or other years 2 weeks seperate bt within 5 weeks of each other.

Everyone deserves a holiday to get away from normal life.   Us window cleaners defo needs a change from time to time

personally id hate that....i like to keep a steady working schedule and work every week (working shorter days) rather than cramming lots of work into 2 weeks then 2 weeks off....

each to their own.... ;)

I had 11 days off last year, must have took me 2 months to get caught up.

Had a week off the other week and now a week behind.

great having the time off but not so great coming back to customers asking where you are

Paul has 'top trumps' me.
I have 2 weeks off in January and go to Thailand.
Just tell the custys in advance that their next clean will be later than usual.
They'll be fine, no problem.
Have a good one.

The last time was Nov/Dec 2015 for 18 days. Cruise to the Caribbean.
The time before that was August 2011. Family holiday to Corsica.
The time before that was June 2005. Family holiday to Bali.

Could do with another one fairly soon methinks.
It's a game of three halves!

Do the council charge you rent if you take a holiday or do they move an asylum seeking family in until you get back? I've never rented, just wondering like.
We look at them, they look through them.
